• HELLO.

    I'M COOPER.

     

     

    Artist, Marketer, Scavenger.

    Raised in Victorian London,

    Enjoys a salt beef sandwich,

    A big fan of dogs.

     

  • Intro

    Firstly, thank you for visiting my site. We're all busy and time is the #1 resource in life so I appreciate it.

     

    I've been lucky enough in life to be born with both a creative brain and ADHD. What does that mean?

     

    Well, it means I'm always spinning multiple plates and constantly getting involved in both large and bespoke projects.

     

    From scavenging for treasure, supporting the local community, creating works of art or planning million pound marketing campaigns ... I like to keep myself productive.

     

    Below you'll find some of the core subject areas I'm involved in ... and I'm sure the list will keep on growing.

  • my CREATIVE-side

    I've been creating random pieces of art for many years. From installations and models to oil painting ... if the idea pops into my head, I go ahead and create it.

     

    I recently converted my spare room into an art studio/ workshop. So if you are around the Queens Park area come by for a gander. Below are some examples I picked out.

     

    The art site is - ARTBYCOOPER.CO

    'WOMAN IN SUITCASE'

    'Woman in suitcase' was a project that came about after coming across both a mannequin head and a retro briefcase in a charity shop. Using a bit of magic I created this eye-catching piece.

    'AT HOME'

    'At Home' is a large oil painting which is part of a collection of paintings that take inspiration from vintage Bronx photos. I've only just gotten into oils but plan to do a lot more.

    'BIZZARE BELLJAR'

    The idea of creating 'Bizzare Belljars' came to me whilst volunteering at Oxfam. Essentially we sometimes received donations of broken bric-a-brac and rather than throw it into the junk I created (in the style of Victorian taxidermy) belljars of art.

    'NELSON IS F*CKED'

    I've begun to hunt down old oil paintings from car boot sales and charity shops and put my own twist on it. As you can see here I added Godzilla to a naval battle scene.

    I put on an exhibition in Queens Park at the WWW gallery. I suppose I can now officially call myself an artist (albeit a self-taught one).

  • my DIGITAL-side

    Back in 1999, I applied for an affiliate marketing position via an ad in the Evening Standard and never looked back

    One affiliate network, two client-side roles and four large media agencies.

  • my CHARITABLE-side

    ,ofI've always had an innate yearning to give back to the community and do some good for others. As such over the years I've been involved in different charitable activities.

     

    I've been helping out at Oxfam for almost a decade now (more specifically the store at Westbourne Grove) for almost a decade where I've come across many an interesting character (and donation!).

     

    Back in 2012 I spent a year travelling around Africa where volunteering in three countries from school building and lion tracking to chimpanzee rehabilitation (as you can imagine it was quite the experience).

     

    Finally and most recently I volunteer with Westminster Connects where I was recently invited to Buckingham Palace in recognition for my volunteer activities.

     

    If there is any volunteer work that you think could be of interest then do let me know.

    Blue Cross Dog Show

    I was put in charge of the dog agility course at this year's Blue Cross Dog show in London. It was great, especially as a) I'm a fan of dogs and b) Reese (sitting behind me in the photo up top) won 'male dog of the year'.

    Oxfam at Selfridges

    As you can see from the 'creative' section I enjoy making art so I was delighted when Oxfam asked me to create one of my bizzare belljars for Selfridges.
